An Incident on d Street Car.

That was an amusing incident which
occurred on a West Madison street cal
one day a few weeks ago. A young
woman was hanging to the leather
and, being the only woman standing
looking very much as if she were
yearning for a seat. Presently N
elderly man arose and, tapping the
young woman on the shoulder, re-
marked in kindly way:
"WOuld you Ike to set DOWN."
'.No." the woman replied, .but
should like to sit
And then she let go the leather, and
was about to take the vacant seat,
when.the old man quickly slipped him.
self back into it and remarked:
"Oh, l thought mebbe you were
tired and wanted to set down bit"
No, thanks" she said rather icily,
grabbing for the strap again. Il pre-
fer standing to setting"
The passengers Uttered a little rs
the car rolled on. In about ten min
utes the old man relcnted and again
rose.
Would You like to set down now?"
he inquired.
Didn't tell you," she retorted,
with wicked look in her eye and
holding tighter than ever to the strap,
''didn't l tell You that never set"
And the young woman had her own
way. The man resumed his seat, the
passengers Uttered again, the standing
woman bit her lips and looked solemn,
and school girl sitting in the corner
whispered to her companion:
81 guess that woman has her own
way at home, don't you, Clara?''
'Yes. And was just wondering
what kind of a husband she has.''-

The Hand of a Thief

The present rage for palmIstry recalls
an incident which occurred half dozen
years since at Bar Harbor. There were
staying at one of the hotels pretty
young widow from Baltimore who was
versed IN the secrets of chiromancy and
4 young Kentrckian who was par ex-
cellence the lion of the season. The
widow for some reason or other had
taken whimsical dislike to the popular
southerner and hardly acknowledged
an acquaintance with him; yet he one
day ventured to ask her to read his
mind, as she had already deciphered
the palms of half the people in the
house. They lady first dcmurred, but
at-1ength thinking, as she afterward ex-
planned, that it was simpler to do as she
was asked than to contest the point, she
requested the gentleman to show her
his hand.
He did so, and, with an involuntary
start of surprise and frankness which
was evidently genuine, she exclaimed:
"Why, it is the hand of a thief" As
the interview took place upon the piazza
in the presence of Il group of boarders,
the position of the young man was a
sufficiently awkward one, but he did
not finch. AS the lady checked herself
in evident confusion he responded with
the most perfect tact and self control:
..Ah! Thank You. That suggests to me
a means of making my way in the world
that had never occurred to me; and
since the war we southerncrs have TO be
on the lookout for opportunities
Lis ready wit saTsd the situation, and
he was more popular than ever; but the
interest of the tale is that two or three
days after he was discovered stealing
the diamonds of wealthy dowager,
and although the matter was hushed
up as much as possible for the sake Of
the ho;cl and of the people who had in
the Kentucl,ian, it somehow
leaked out that the rouge was an old
offender and thief long known to the
police OF New York and Philadelphia
Boston Post.
